Itinerary description
The length of the Main Cycle Route is about 600 kilometers - we covered approximately 550 kilometers in eight days from Bayreuth through Kulmbach, Schweinfurt, Bamberg, Würzburg and Aschaffenburg to Frankfurt am Main, skipping the first and last kilometers due to logistical reasons. It's worth noting that the route along the Main has two starting points, as the actual Main River is formed by the confluence of two smaller rivers - the White Main and the Red Main. The "Red" variant is more commonly chosen due to the beautiful city of Bayreuth, which provides a splendid introduction to the Franconian atmosphere that will surround the cycling tourist for the next several days of their journey.
